Indian Licensing (PSARA 2005)

Why protection in New Delhi must be licensed.

In India, the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act 2005 (PSARA) licenses agencies at state level, with personnel trained and verified. Armed protection is tightly controlled.

Algoz coordinates protection in New Delhi exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative PSARA-licensed, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or extend across Mumbai and Dubai.

Good to Know

Bodyguard in New Delhi - Frequently Asked Questions

Why use Algoz rather than hiring a local security agency in New Delhi directly?

Because vetting an unknown local security agency in New Delhi yourself is where the real risk lies. Standards, licensing and discipline vary widely between firms, and a principal cannot tell a properly licensed, reliable operator from an underqualified one until something goes wrong in the field, when it is already too late. Algoz knows the New Delhi market in India: we have already worked with these providers, vetted them and kept only the best. Engage us and we select the right team for your profile, brief them under NDA and supervise them closely against our own standard throughout - so you gain genuine local knowledge and full licensing without gambling on an untested agency. One accountable point of contact owns the outcome, and you are never left managing an unfamiliar vendor in a foreign city.

Is it legal to hire a bodyguard in India?

Yes. Under the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act 2005 (PSARA), agencies are licensed at state level. Algoz coordinates only PSARA-licensed operatives, discreetly and under NDA.

Can you provide close protection for families and executives in New Delhi?

Yes. Licensed officers and secure transport cover residences, government and business meetings, weddings and heritage visits for Indian families and visiting executives, coordinated discreetly under NDA.

Do you provide protocol-aware protection for official visits?

Yes. We arrange operatives experienced in ministry, embassy and delegation movement across New Delhi, coordinating timing, routing and venue access with full respect for protocol.

Can you support diplomatic functions and summits?

Yes. For functions and summits, we provide discreet venue cover, access management and secure movement to and from the venue.

Can you provide family and residential cover?

Yes. We arrange attentive protection for family movement and residential security across Lutyens' Delhi and other districts.

Are your operatives licensed in India?

Yes. All operational execution is carried out by partners holding the required Indian private-security licensing under PSARA, fluent in Hindi and English.

Can the client choose the bodyguard they prefer?

In many cases, yes. Given sufficient notice, and provided the request can be accommodated without compromising safety, the client may select the profile of the operative, and in most engagements is offered this choice. It cannot, however, override our professional security assessment, which always takes precedence.
